Internship Vacancies and Application Instructions-WFUNA Internships

WFUNA Internship Application Form - Geneva Office

WFUNA offers 6-month placements to individuals who are interested in gaining experience working for an international non-governmental organization. The placements are designed to give young people professional-level experience through working in the offices of WFUNA at the United Nations Headquarters in New York or Geneva, or in its office in Seoul.

All interns are required to work 40 hours/week, generally during our office hours from 9:30am - 5:30pm, and the positions are unpaid. We offer young individuals the opportunity to make a real contribution to WFUNA with a relatively high level of responsibility, thereby ensuring that they are fully integrated in the teams in New York, Geneva and Seoul.

Interns are provided with training on their specific tasks, skill-building opportunities, and are given the chance to take ownership of projects and activities under their control. When sending your application, please indicate which position you are interested in (see www.wfuna.org/intern for vacancies). Do not send general applications.

Do not send an application if you cannot commit to a 6-month internship.

Due to visa restrictions, preference will be given to applicants who possess a valid visa. Certain exceptions and possibilities may apply for those applicants who currently do not possess a valid visa.
